Newer antipsychotics like Aripiprazole have lesser potential for EPS as compared to haloperidol, but if patient had been on haloperidol for too long and has developed what is termed as tardive dyskinesia ( slow, rhything movements), they may not go. Besides, there are other atypical antipsychotics which have even lower pity for eps as compared to Aripiprazole like olanzapine, Quitipine and lurasidone. You may discuss with your psychiatrist in case patient develops eps with Aripiprazole.
